Soul, if you want to learn secrets,
 your heart must forget about shame
 and dignity. You are God's lover,
 yet you worry what people are saying.

Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation.

Listen with ears of tolerance! See through the eyes of compassion! Speak with the language of love

The evil that is in the world almost always comes of ignorance, and good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding.

For better or ill, I was very heavily influenced by men I knew who always dressed formally.

I need you to love me, I don't like me, either, if that helps.

Change your way of thinking, change your way of doing, change your way of choosing.

Songs won't save the planet, but neither will books or speeches.
